On defining the term shake ‘n vape

[bombastinator]

so I ordered from Inawera in Poland directly via the web. I know why I thought the company was Asian. Shipping time is about the same as from China.

Anyway I got one bottle of standard flavor, and 5 “shake ‘n vapes” which I assumed were simply flavoring combinations designed to be used alone. Turns out I was wrong. What I got were partially filled 60 ml bottles of favoring and base without any nic in them.

They are NOT pure flavoring. They’re mostly base. The most expensive thing in the whole thing was the kinda crappy bottle.

I thought there was a special name used in Europe for these things “partials” or something. They were NOT called “shake ‘n vape” flavors. I am ...... off and feel cheated.

My tiny 10ml bottles of flavoring comes out 1 distinct drop at a time. 1.8 ml's seemed like a lifetime earlier. All my concentrates all had that word (concentrate) in their name or flavour

Maybe short fill?
And if you get an email from Bluro, that's Polish for office.

I buy large bottles generally. The fluecure flavor I bought was 100ml I think. It didn’t have a tip at all. I had to pour it into a squeeze bottle.

Short fill sounds right. The inawera “shake n vapes are actually 60ml/40ml short fills. You are warned.

@bombastinator, I would have expected to get exactly what you have, based on Inawera's own description:

To me, the only thing "shake & vape" means, is that there is no extended steeping (>3 days) required.

The term I think you are thinking of is: "one-shots." One-shots refer to combination/complex concentrates, that the end DIYer only has to add PG, VG, and nicotine to, to get a finished product.

Yeah, the website seems to have changed a bit since I last used it. The background is no longer peach colored for one thing. A month of shipping time is a while.

They don’t seem to sell one-shots at all now. There are “duets”, not sure if those were available earlier or not, but they are available only in 10ml sizes and there are other lack of clarities about those.

I think it depends on which website you use. There are at least three that I am aware of . By your description of the pink background, I am guessing that you were looking at this one. In addition; the one I took the screen shot from was here. And, the third site I know of is this one.

For the first and third sites, you have to click on the individual product to see the detailed description. The second site is the only one that has the mixing details under the group tab.

To me shake and vape means a juice you mix and then immediately vape without any steeping. All my DIY recipes are shake and vape.

bombastinator there's a specific Inawera thread, and I sure needed help in finding and understanding their Pinglish (Polish translations to English) for my first successful order direct from there. @ceeceeisme was like my Guardian Angel

Thanks for the page @Wayneo

Yes, what @bombastinator purchased was Inawera's new short-fills. They came out last year sometime - I've yet to buy any because they are a tad expensive and I'm not very interested in a pre-mixed short-fill. I can see how someone could make the mistake though - they are not very well described on Inawera's website.

This has apparently improved. I’m Vaping them anyway since I paid for them. I had some 15mg VG base for MTL. Using that base they come out to 5mg, which is usable for DL. Tried only the mutant passion so far which seems to be a strawberry passionflower. Floral, not fruit. Passion fruit is tart and this is distinctly floral. Not bad, though I’m not a fan of strawberry.
